Abstract
Lactosylated poly-L-lysine is a nonviral vector that transfers genes into airway epithelial cells, including those from individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). Substitution of 40% of the -amino groups of poly-L-lysine with lactosyl residues not only provided a ligand for receptor-mediated endocytosis, but also reduced the toxicity when compared with nonsubstituted
